It’s Easter Week on Pod Sematary! Chris & Kelsey paint some Crite eggs and get lost in the labyrinth at their summer home!
The Classic Film: Critters 2 (1988)
"Eggs of the small, furry alien carnivores are left behind on Earth and, after hatching, again set their appetites on the town of Grover's Bend” (IMDb.com). Wackier than the original, this sequel has some bright moments, but otherwise doesn't really need to exist (other than to get us closer to Leonardo DiCaprio in Part 3!).
The Modern Film: Atrocious (2010)
"Two teenage siblings endure a terrifying experience while investigating a rural legend near their family's vacation home” (IMDb.com). This Spanish-language indie horror is about as impactful as it is long, but we aren't necessarily complaining.
